Quote Highlighting Carried To EOF in Objective-C

The quote (") syntax highlighting can carry on highlighting until the end of file, skipping / ignoring an opening quote, honoring only the closing quote, given a specific Objective-C code block.

I expect for the quote character to start highlighting at an opening quote.

OSX
Sublime 3 Build 3065
Clean ST profile

1 Create a new Objective-C file, e.g. "foo.m"
2 Input the following code block:

 - (void)foo {
   NSCAssert((1), @";");
   int four = 4;
 }

3 NOTICE the latter lines, beginning with int, are highlighted as if quoted.

Expecting the int line to not be quoted. Xcode renders this code correctly.

ASIDE: The markdown engine here on github.com appears to also have the same highlighting bug.

Workaround: remove the semicolon (;) from the quoted string.

Whatever the syntax definition is doing there, it's likely wrong. The rendered github highlighting is indeed the same as for Sublime.

Cool - I just reported to GH Support (succinctly, and received a gold star https://assets-cdn.github.com/images/modules/contact/goldstar.gif).

Issue appears to me to originate in https://github.com/textmate/objective-c.tmbundle. Made another Issue here textmate/objective-c.tmbundle#5.

Should this ST issue be closed?

No, I don't think the shipped bundles are regularly updated and I also don't exactly know where they originate from since Jon never said anything about them (wish he open sourced them, if he could).

So, let's keep these issues until they are fixed downstream.

I've never received a gold star for my reports, but they still fixed most of my concerns. 😄
